In this day and age, it's nearly impossible to get through a workday without a laptop. Whether you're working from home or in the office, a quality notebook can make all the difference. Luckily, the October Prime Day sales are here with plenty of laptop deals worth checking out.
You'll find a number of laptop deals on Amazon's site this year, with discounts from some of the most popular PC manufacturers. From a well-equipped 15-inch Surface Pro to a 17-inch MacBook Pro with plenty of memory and a unique lift-hinge design, there are some big savings to be found.
The gaming laptop category usually gets the most attention during Prime Day, but there's also a lot to be said for a solid mid-range machine that can do web browsing and note-taking just as well. That's where we'd recommend keeping an eye out for the Dell G15 5530, which features a 15.6-inch QHD display and a powerful AMD Ryzen processor with RTX 3080 graphics.
This Dell model is down to $1,130 — around $270 below its usual going rate. While it's a little heavier than some of our top picks, it should be able to play modern games at high-ish settings and comes with 16GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD.
The Chromebook Spin 311 has become a regular on our list of best budget computers thanks to its simple, no-fuss setup and years of solid performance. This deal sees it drop to just over $200 / PS200, which is a record low for this model.
